Larry is right on the mark! I am a technical motorhead and a car
person. I have some favorite marques like Ferrari, BMW, MG and
perhaps others but I seriously diss no car. They are all special. If I
have a set of least desirable cars, it would have to be the Asian copies
of the great European marques. You know, Lexus that look just like
BMWs, Infinities that would be happy if they could even look like
Lexus :-P, and so on. I am reminded of the line in the first Jurassic
park when Malcolm said (paraphrasing), "There is no questioning that
the technology is magnificent. It's just that you did nothing to
deserve
it." Stated another way; You can buy the end product, but not the
journey that took one there.
